Pre-Owned Update: Buyers and sellers prepare for brisk business this year
The momentum that began to build in the used jet market late last summer is rolling into this year.

The momentum that began to build in the used jet market late last summer is rolling into this year. Overall inventory is about where it was a year ago, but after a significant month-over-month build-up through July, sales activity heightened and just as quickly reversed direction. Between August and the middle of last month, roughly 100 more aircraft departed the market than arrived.

Oil prices at multi-month lows and interest rates in check can mean only that this year seems to have all the indicators pointing toward continued vigorous activity.
The five-year average supply of jets for sale worldwide through last year is 1,875.
